High School BOTS FAQs
What if my student is not able to attend the whole weekend?
Even if your student is not able to attend all of the camp, we would still love to have them be a part of it as much as possible. If a student is arriving late to camp, or leaving early from camp, we would simply need this time away form filled out to be able to coordinate drop off and pick up.
What are tribes?
For our camps and retreats, we assign each small group a specific team that they will participate in competitive games and activities with. We call these teams “tribes.” Tribes have a specific color and mascot (i.e. the Blue Hurricanes, etc), and we encourage students and leaders to wear their tribe’s color throughout the week.
